Chapter three

Aiden's pov

I see her walking down the stairs but I take a double check because I didn't think she'd really wear my hoodie.

I decide to ignore what it does to me.

When she looks at me weird, I realize I'm staring so I immediately stop and turn to introduce her to my friends.

But then I notice her tiny shorts and that's an immediate no.

I mean don't get me wrong every piece of shit who tells his girlfriend (not that she's my girlfriend) what to wear can fuck right off but my teammates are horny fuckers.

"Go change."

"Excuse me?"

"Please go change," I try to be polite but then I remember I'm supposed to hate her "your ass is hanging out!"

She glares at me and just walks around me, towards the guys.

They all look her up and down and I swear to god I can hear my goddamn blood boiling.

As soon as they notice my death glare they all look elsewhere.

They were on their way to a party but then the blizzard started and they were nearby so I of course offered them shelter.

Even though I was annoyed, that they disturbed my time with Azalea.

Because they were on their way to a party they also brought alcohol so they all start drinking.

I keep my eyes on Azalea but she's drinking too much for my liking.

When she's about to take another shot I stop her "that's enough."

"Oh okay dad."

I roll my eyes at her. Even when she's drunk she has to be a smartass.

She stops drinking but then everyone begins to dance and she of course joins them.

After some minutes she starts grinding on Tristan, the guy I can stand the least on the football team, and I almost loose my shit.

I quickly go in between them and ignore the dirty look Tristan shoots me. No one night stand for you tonight ass.

I grab her waist but she's doesn't even notice the change because she just grinds on me instead.

Fuck! That's not good!

"Okay, you should really go to bed now!"

She murmurs something but only god knows what and surprisingly follows me to the bedroom without much complaining.

I begin to prepare the bed for her.

"Why do you hate me?" She asks after a a minute.

I take a deep breath "I don't hate you, you're just damn annoying."

She scoffs and pouts her lip, it's kinda cute.

"You are sooo annoying!! Especially when you always flirt with those stupid girls ughhh!" She complains as she throws herself on the bed.

"Why? Are you jealous." I tease her.

She pauses to think "Yeah, yeah actually, I'm so jealous I could choke them all!"

I look at her with wide eyes, because she sounds like a little psychopath but also because of the being jealous part.

But then I remember that it's probably just the alcohol talking so I put a blanket over her and leave the room after her breathing evens out.

Goddamnit what is wrong with me?

I don't like her!!

Well that's at least what I tell me, even though I know it's complete bullshit.

After I find a sleeping spot for everyone I go to bed as well.

I can't sleep.

I can only think about the fact that there's only one wall between me and her.

Her pov

It's Friday today so that means finally weekend.

And I'm so damn excited because C spontaneously decided to come here and spend the weekend with me.

We decided to go to a party tonight so I'm currently waiting for her to come out of the bathroom.

"Aaand?" She asks as she walks out of the bathroom wearing a cute mini skirt with a top.

"You look like a badass but an approachable one. You look damn hot."

"Then it's perfect! Cause this was what I was going for!"

Her date went great but she still wants to be open for other things considering her breakup is actually pretty fresh.

"Now let's see," she mutters as she goes through my closet "ooh, this one's perfect." She holds up a very revealing black top I bought like two years ago but I never wore it.

"No."

"Yes. I swear everyone is gonna loose their mind! Just try it one with this jeans so it's not overdressed." She points to a beige mom jeans and I have to admit, I think it's gonna look amazing.

But I would also never question C's fashion taste, she wants to study fashion after all.

I go to try it on and damnit my tits look great in it, now she's gonna insist on me wearing it.

I walk out of the bathroom and C squeals.

"You look so good. Aiden is gonna love it!" That wipes the grin off my face.

"Aiden is also coming? How do you know?"

"You know I know everything." She smirks.

That is true, Chiara always knows the latest gossip, she has her connections.

I laugh at my wording in my head.

Sounds like she's in the mafia.

"Well great."

"Oh don't be like that. Let's make it our mission to make him jealous tonight," I roll my eyes at that silly idea "no seriously, I never saw him show more emotion than when he laughed at a kid falling to the ground one time. Let's get him to show some! It'll be fun." Because I'm dumb but also curious I agree.

We spend too much time on hair and makeup but once we're ready I feel like we I could take over the world.

I laugh at myself again.

Okay enough with that shit.

We arrive at the party and there are people everywhere, even the street I front of the mansion is full.

When we finally make it inside the house, the music is loud and it smells like alcohol, sweat and sex.

We both take a few shots to get a little loose.

When the alcohol finally takes affect everything immediately feels better.

We both start dancing.

And I just forget about everything.

After some time though, I can't help but wonder where Aiden is. I haven't seen him yet.

"Azalea is it?" I hear someone say from behind me. I turn around a find a very handsome man standing there.

He has cute blond locks and it's difficult to decipher his eye color with the colored lightning in here but I think they look something like blue, very light blue that is.

I smile the flirty smile, I practiced in the mirror for more nights than I'd like to admit.

"Yes that's indeed me. And who are you?"

"I'm Theo Marino, it's nice to finally meet you in person." He smiles, showing off his perfectly straight teeth.

"Do I know you?" I ask confused.

"Oh sorry no, I'm a good friend of Aiden." Oh.

Ohhh, that's why his name sounds so familiar.

"Oh well, it's to meet you too." I smile at him.

"Do you wanna dance?" He questions.

"Yeah sure." I answer because why not.

Before he takes my waist I make sure C is okay. I see her dancing with a hottie and she looks like she's really enjoying herself, so that's good.

I start dancing with Theo and he is a really good dancer.

Maybe he's a professional dancer?

After some time I really need to take a break, I tell him as much and he tells me to follow him.

Normally I wouldn't just follow, because he's still a stranger but I do know him from Aiden so it's fine.

And he also seems like a genuinely nice guy.

We walk up the stairs and all of a sudden I'm on the roof of the mansion, looking down at all the people dancing and drinking.

It's warmer than expected.

Theo sits down at the edge but I'm a little skeptical because that way he could easily push me off the roof and I would for sure be dead!

"I won't push you, I promise." He says as if he can read my mind.

I sit down next to him.

I shiver, because even though it's not that cold, my top is practically nonexistent, and he gives me his jacket.

I thank him and he just nods his head.

"So what are you doing here?" I ask.

"My parents and Aidens father are friends so they said I should stay with him while they're god knows where."

"Does that means we're gonna go to the same school?"

"Looks like it, yes. So who are you?"

"Um I'm still Azalea," I smile awkwardly.

"No I mean who are you as a person? Do you have any passions?"

It's kinda weird to talk with a still complete stranger, but there's just something about him that makes me feel safe.

"Uh there's not much to say about me. I live with my mom. I love food and I hate school." Fuck I'm lame.

The look he sends me tells me he thinks the same.

"Come on, I'm sure that's just the tip of the iceberg that is you."

"I know I've only known you for about 3 hours but I really like you already." I say wanting to talk about something else than my lame existence.

He smiles "that's nice to hear."

"Are you a professional dancer?" I ask him, thinking back to him dancing.

"Yes, well I was," he smiles sadly.

"Can I ask what you mean by that?" I ask carefully, not wanting to overstep any boundaries.

"That's a story for another day."

"Oh okay, I'm sorry I didn't wanna-"

"No it's fine, I just don't wanna to think about it tonight."

He leans back and I lay back next to him, so we're looking at the stars.

"Do you have something interesting to tell me about your life?" I ask.

"Not really."

"Damn we're both lame."

"That's sad."

"Yep."

After some peaceful moments of looking at the stars in a comfortable silence, I decide that it's time to look after C again.

"I should look if my bestie is still good. She's probably also looking for me already."

"Yeah sure. I'm gonna leave as well in a few minutes. I hope we'll meet again."

"We definitely will." I smile at him and turn around walking back down the stairs.

I find C still dancing with the hottie so I decide to not disturb her and just walk home, because it's not that far.

I write her a message and she responds immediately, saying I should go and she's gonna get home some time later.

I get out of my heels and start walking.

I'm a little disappointed Aiden wasn't there, but I'm glad I got to meet Theo.

I really hope we can become friends because he seems like a cool person to be around.

The walk back home is longer than expected.

And I'm only halfway there when it starts to rain.

Are you kidding me?

One hour ago there were no freaking clouds anywhere!

I put my purse above my head but it does absolutely nothing except making me look stupid so I put it down again.

Suddenly I hear someone honk from behind me.

I turn around and - fuck me - there's Aiden Torres in his Tesla.

I start walking faster because there's no way I'm gonna get into his car.

I'm still dreaming about Tuesday when he slept only one thin wall away from me.

He drives next to me.

"What are you doing? Get in!"

My feet choose this exact moment to start to hurt, so I grumpily open the passenger door and get in.

"Why were you walking home alone? It's dangerous."

"Oh yeah? Because of creeps like you following girls?" That makes him shut up, which in turn makes me smile.

He drives me home in silence.

When he stops before my house I turn to him "why do you know where I live?"

"I've known you for twelve years." He says as if that's explanation enough. I didn't know where he lives until four days ago.

"Thanks for driving I guess."

He makes a noise in his throat but doesn't bother saying anything else.

I get out of the car and he drives away.

Okay that was weird. Even for him.

I immediately get ready for bed, and that's when I notice I still have Theo's jacket on. Oh, guess I gotta give it back to him on Monday.
